2. Lots of clanks there, but it should pass inspection. 3. It barely fits in that engine shed. Thanks for this! John. Date: 04/21/15 16:41 Re: Durbin & Greenbrier Valley #3 in steam Author: Earlk I tried to download this, but it took forever and gave up.
Here's a linky to a less clanky version.... http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b388/earlknoob_/th_100_6143_00a_zps68w4j1rs.mp4 Date: 04/21/15 17:07 Re: Durbin & Greenbrier Valley #3 in steam Author: drfunk411 I wonder if they have a tennis ball hanging by a string in that shed?

The truck was rolled out and disassembled. I took the axle and wheels to a machine shop in Okland, MD to have a new axle manufactured. They pressed off the wheels and created a new axle. I remember distinctly the shop owner said it had 11 different diameters on it! Don't ask what they were, I didn't ask and as long as the truck went back together, all was well.
